Net Basics by Netwebbers
In the market for a website, but not sure
where to start? We have put together this summary called net basics which will
explain the workings of a website, and how
Netwebbers can help you establish your Internet presence.
You will need three things to get a
website up and running on the Internet:
-
Domain Name. Each and every website on the Internet has a domain name, such as
www.netwebbers.net. This domain name
is considered your Internet address, and is also known as a URL (uniform
resource locator). The first step in having your own website is to purchase
the domain name of your choice, or the closest equivalent to your first choice
based on availability. A secure, private domain name can cost as little as $20
per year. You may already have a domain name which you would like to transfer
to a newer, low-cost registrant. Whether you need help registering or
transferring a new or existing domain name, Netwebbers can guide you or even
do the work for you.
-
Hosting Services.
Each and every website on the Internet is hosted
on a server. If you compare website hosting to renting a storefront, then that
piece of cyberspace where you park your domain name is your Internet store.
You need to rent or purchase that storefront in order to display your
goods and services. Web hosting fees are usually based on the amount of
bandwidth (or storefront square footage) that your website requires, and the
rates can vary among hosting companies from $5 to $85 per month and more.
Beware of hidden fees. A hosting company that offers $5 per month service may
only allow a small amount of bandwidth usage per month for that rate, and if
exceeded, your site could shut down automatically or your hosting bill could
skyrocket. At Netwebbers, we offer very reasonable rates for hosting ranging
from $15 to $25 per month with unlimited amounts of bandwidth usage, and
transferring an existing domain to our servers is easy. Read more about our
hosting services.
-
Website Design.
Once you have established your domain name and host server, the
final and a very crucial step to having your own website is the website
design. A typical website would consist of anywhere from 3 to 20
or more pages, and a
good website is attractive, easy to navigate, and contains a wealth of content. You may have
a concept in mind, or your company may already be using graphic designs or
logos for promotional materials. These items can all be incorporated into your
site, and new design elements can be created and added easily. At Netwebbers
we will work with you to help design the website you envision at a price you
can afford.
By providing these
services: domain name registration, website hosting, and website design,
Netwebbers can have your site up and running on the Internet in
no time.
